What you were told was...
Camden had good qualities that weren't able to be used until he developed the ability to stay on the floor (i.e. defend well enough to not get exposed) and that VT could only wait so long before he developed those traits
Tyler Nickel coming to VT was a nail in the coffin for Camden because they were the same player but Nickel did the things Camden does at a higher level.
It wasnt a matter of Camden was always going to be a bad player, it was that he didn't develop in the timeline needed and VT needed to move on...much like Patrick Wessler. Camden moved on to a place where he could play through his mistakes it made him a better player.

3-16 from 3 in his first 3 games. Most top prospects sat out the last game.

Problem with NIL is that they are gone so fast they can't get developed.
